Sebbene molti pensino che un'alimentazione vegana costituisca un problema per quanto riguarda la preparazione di pietanze elaborate e saporite, al contrario, questo tipo di cucina racchiude in sé tantissime possibilità.
Non è per forza necessario utilizzare la carne o altri derivati animali, infatti, per realizzare piatti gustosi.
Basta, infatti, apprendere i giusti accostamenti di sapori e gli eventuali sostituti vegetali per riuscire ad elaborare piatti di alta cucina, ma che al tempo stesso siano in linea con la vostra filosofia di vita vegana, con le tematiche ambientali e, perché no, anche con una dieta leggera e legata ad un basso consumo di calorie. Inoltre tantissime ricette della tradizione contadina non prevedono l’utilizzo di carne o derivati, per cui possiamo attingere anche ad un grande bagaglio di tradizione culinaria a nostra disposizione.
